Overview

The SNC-EB642R is a weather-resistant, easy to install ‘bullet-type’ fixed network camera. It’s ideal for a wide range of outdoor security and surveillance tasks, from city centres, transport systems and retail centres to schools and colleges.

View-DR expands dynamic range for significantly improved imaging in high-contrast and strongly backlit scenes, like sun-drenched offices or car park entrances. Image stabilisation keeps video images crisp and clear, even when the camera is subject to vibration on a mounting pole or bracket.

The camera can see in conditions of complete darkness, with built-in IR (infrared) illumination that’s coupled with Advanced IR technology to capture near and far-away objects without overexposure. The SNC-EB642R can clearly capture objects in total darkness at distances up to 60m (30 IRE) from the camera.

The addition of SD card edge storage allows video/audio data to be recorded directly by the camera when triggered by an alarm event. This provides valuable redundancy in the event of temporary network failure: recording to the network server resumes automatically when normal network connection is restored.

Installation of the SNC-EB642R is simplified by the same familiar user interface and usability as previous-generation Sony E Series cameras. Designed for round-the-clock outdoor use, the unitised camera can operate in extreme temperatures from -30°C to +50°C and is IP66 rated for resistance to water and dust. The unique mounting arm simplifies installation with flexible two-axis adjustment of viewing angle. For extra convenience, a built-in sunshade helps cut glare for improved picture quality and contrast on brightly-lit days.

Features

Vandal resistant

The camera’s vandal-resistant design meets the IK08 standard (protection against mechanical impact), making the SNC-EB642D ideal for use in environments where there’s a risk of physical tampering or damage.

Steadier, more stable video footage

The in-built image stabiliser minimises the effects of camera shake – for example when the camera’s pole mounted or subject to mechanical vibration. With clearer, more stable video images it’s easier to see what’s happening in any scene.

In-built motion detection can trigger a range of actions, from storage and transfer of images to sounding of external alarms. False alarms caused by noise, weather and environment noise are minimised by a smart processing algorithm. Human face detection is also supported, allowing rapid indexing of recordings to find events where a face is visible in the scene.

Clear pictures in total darkness with Advanced IR

Built-in IR illuminators assist with clearly capturing objects in total darkness at distances up to 60m (30 IRE) from the camera. View-DR technology ensures that clear black-and-white images can be seen both near and far from the camera without overexposure.

Recording quality to suit your network

Edge recording on SD card for reliable operation

SD card edge storage allows video/audio data to be recorded directly by the camera when triggered by an alarm event. This provides valuable redundancy in the event of temporary network failure: recording to the network server resumes automatically when normal network connection is restored.

Reduce cabling costs with Power Over Ethernet (PoE)

Power over Ethernet (PoE) allows the camera be powered by the same Ethernet cable that’s used for data transfer, reducing installation complexity and costs.

View and control with your smartphone

Remotely view live camera images with your Android or iOS smartphone or tablet. You don’t even need to download a special app.

ONVIF (Open Network Video Interface Forum) compliance

Support for ONVIF simplifies interoperability with other network video devices. The ONVIF (Open Network Video Interface Forum) defines a common protocol for the exchange of information between network video devices, including automatic device discovery and video streaming.

Adjustable sunshade

The integrated sunshade protects the lens from direct sun glare, making the camera particularly suitable for outdoor use in direct sunlight.

Easy installation and set-up

The unitised camera can be installed easily, with no need for an additional adaptor box. Setup is simplified with quick focus/zoom adjustment and flexible two-axis adjustment of the camera’s field of view.

Dependable all-weather operation

The camera can operate reliably over a wide -30 to +50°C temperature range. Ideal for outdoor use, it is IP66 rated, water-proof and dust-tight.
